历史
M4 Sherman 是盟军中应用最广泛的中型坦克，其中包括英属印度陆军。它拥有一台可靠的发动机，装甲厚实，且能利用备用零件快速维修。印度坦克团接收了 M4 Sherman，以在亚洲和地中海地区对抗敌方装甲力量。
在第二次世界大战的最后阶段，由印度人员驾驶的 M4 Sherman 跨越宽阔的河流，驶过开阔的平原，解放了缅甸各地的城镇。75mm 主炮发射的高爆弹摧毁了敌方防御工事，并为步兵清除了道路。车组成员很喜欢它宽敞的内部空间以及用于与步兵协调作战的无线电装置。
1947 年印度独立后，保留了大量的 M4 Sherman 坦克车队。在 1965 年冷战期间的重大边境冲突中，印度的 M4 Sherman 坦克参加了大型装甲对决，在更新型的坦克到达之前坚守着防御防线。
